Geocache Description:

This time it gets much harder!
Solve the following number puzzle to determine the cache coordinates.

There is only one solution to this puzzle.

Find a number consisting of 9 digits in which each of the digits from 1 through 9 appear only once. This number must satisfy the following requirements:

a. The number should be evenly divisible by 9.
b. If the right most digit is removed, the remaining 8-digit number should be evenly divisible by 8.
c. If then again the right most digit is removed, the remaining 7-digit number should be evenly divisible by 7.
d. Etc, etc... until the last remaining 1 digit number is evenly divisble by 1.

Once you have determined the 9 digit number, let's call it X, then the coordinates to the cache are:

N: (X-226697059)/35
W: (X-228140424)/21


Usual puzzle cache disclaimer: The cache is NOT located at the posted coordinates.
